TAKING CARE OF YOUR WINDOWS AND DOORS

This information is designed to help you take care of your Senator windows and doors.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE

It is advisable to carry out routine maintenance twice a year, although this may need to be done more frequently in areas of high exposure.

As a general rule, all parts exposed when the window is closed should be washed down with warm soapy water using a soft cloth, rinsed well and dried thoroughly.

Avoid ammonia and abrasive cleaning agents, particularly on handles and other metal ﬁxings.

Parts exposed when the window or door is open should be simply wiped clean, removing grime from old lubricant, airborne debris and remains of insect life.

Special attention should be paid to keep the drainage channels free and clear of blockages.

MOVING PARTS

Moving parts and ﬁxing should be treated as follows.

A very light application of petroleum jelly or equivalent will keep the locking mechanism in good working order.

A suitable acid and resin free grease or lubricant should be used in the sliding bars, gears and face plates.

Maintenance of friction stays/hinges is critical and it is important to follow instruction for lubrication and adjustment.

Check that all ﬁxings are secure.

DO’S

Clean the glass regularly with a good quality liquid spray glass cleaner.

Wash down the uPVC/Aluminium proﬁles and doors twice a year with warm soapy water, rinse well and wipe dry.

Only use cleaning materials which don’t impair anti-corrosion properties of the surface coatings.

Keep all tracks clear of dust and debris in order to reduce wear and tear on sliding parts.

Ensure all moving parts are lubricated with a small application of light oil once a year.

“I didn’t get a chance yesterday, but just to say, amazing workmanship, the fitters were brilliant. Tidied & cleaned up every day after themselves. The product is great. And thank you, we would highly recommend ye.”

“Heating costs have reduced by at least 50% since we installed Senator Windows. All of my friends and neighbours have remarked “oh have you built a new house, as it looks completely different with the new windows and door!” The new window design also improves safety in our home in the event of a fire, which most people don’t even think about. The whole process from fitting to after sales service was superb.”

“Your technician Richard has just left. This guy is an absolute gentleman. So polite. I'm delighted with the door. This is the second door I have had from Senator. Not only is the quality of the door outstanding but the cleanliness of the installers is second to none. No dust, mess or rubbish left at all. Installer cleaned everything up from the floor to the rad covers. I would highly recommend Senator and Richard the installer. First class service.”
